Here are some pictures from the two rituals we held on September 30, 2006.
One ritual was to mark the completion of the 13-moon Dedicants' Program of Study. The happy Dedicants are Tigerlily, Phoenix, and Butterfly Moonpillow bat Dinah. The ritual formally named them Initiates of the Sisterhood. They received their White Cords , which marked their progress on the Path.
The other ritual formally welcomed the Priestess Tara LeFey into the Sisterhood. We marked her Path by gifting her with a tri-color cord denoting her Service to the Goddess.
Enjoy the Pics!
Everyone gathered afterwards for cake and bubbly! ( except the elusive Ash-the- picture taker)
Saille Honor's cake-plate and thumb, and Chahanpi Mellisae enjoying her cake!
The newly-named Tara LeFey looking serene and gorgeous in her white outfit.
How happy we all are to have this new Initiate in our Sisterhood: Butterfly Moonpillow bat Dinah!
The ever-ethereal Tigerlily after completing her oath.
And Phoenix, with flames rising from her head - how apt !!
The elusive Ash the Silent by the altar.
